Villas in Ovacik, Fethiye

A villa in Ovacik is perfect for travellers looking to get away from it all, to be close to, but not directly in, the action, and to spend lazy days beach hopping and swimming in indigo bays. Set in a valley near the Babadag mountain, Ovacik lies between the bustling town of Fethiye and the idyllic Blue Lagoon, offering peace and tranquillity and a laid-back vibe. The village also has a distinctly British feel due to the large number of expats that call it home. Ovacik has restaurants, so no need to travel far from your Ovacik villa, and is situated close to beaches and some of Europe’s most famous paragliding spots. Families and couples will love an Ovacik villa holiday, with other draws being long summers and cool breezes coming off the nearby mountain.

History and culture in Ovacik

Ovacik is a very residential village and activities are mostly centred around eating, drinking, shopping and unwinding, but history and culture lovers will find plenty to do just outside of the town itself. On a villa holiday in Ovacik, it’s easy to head into Fethiye and pay a visit to the Fethiye Museum, which is home to many Lycian artefacts from the Bronze, Archaic, Hellenistic, Roman and Byzantine days. The museum’s top sight is the important ‘Trilingual Stele’, with inscriptions in Greek, Lycian and Aramaic and used to decipher the Lycian language.

Outside the museum, there’s a charming open-air gallery with lots of unique and fascinating pieces. The ancient cities of Pinara and Tlos and the Fethiye ancient rock tombs are also reachable from our villas in Ovacik.

There’s plenty to do in Ovacik and the surrounding area, with numerous day trips on offer and dozens of tour operators active in the local area – especially in Fethiye. Book onto a Jeep or quad bike safari or hire a buggy and go off-roading through mountainous terrain – prepare to get muddy.
